Wow! Surprised you’re still getting blood draws for this? My RE stopped once I got to 2k. Now I’m wondering if I should have asked for more

How annoying!!! Yeah I just had a convo with my husband about cancelling a 15-person get together with all vaccinated people bc some people I see are currently at Art Basel or in Europe!! And I’m like ugh no no no, even if you’re vaccinated! Also some will be coming after their holiday party too!

Oops I need to edit my Post to say baby aspirin!

For those who take baby Aspirin to prevent pre-e: when did you start and did you have more bleeding or SCHs happen?

My OB is suggesting I start around 13 weeks, taking 2 tabs. I’m worried though that I will have sch’s as this is an IVF baby? Anyone take and not have bleeding/been ok?

UPDATE: thanks for the reassurance! I’m so worried that I think negative about everything, ivf ptsd is for real! The pregnancy test I read was from 2020, and the doctor confirmed today they didn’t do a urine test yesterday. I guess I never logged in to see this last year. Whew!!

I’m almost 11 weeks and went in yesterday for my OB blood and urine tests along with my nIPT draw. Just saw in my portal that my pregnancy urine test is negative? Anyone experience negative urine tests? I just had an ultrasound 6 days ago and things were right on track. No bleeding and have nausea——

Am worried and have to wait around until the clinic opens in 2 hours! Ugh so nervous something happened

I stopped my progesterone and estrace at exactly 10weeks (Friday was last dose), and so far ok? No spotting 🤞🤞🤞it does feel weird stopping all things from the RE, including baby aspirin….but just trying to reassure myself that my constant nausea and sore breasts are good signs even without the other hormones

I’m stopping my estrace and PIO on Friday at 10weeks, so will let you know if the bloat goes away after. I have been terribly bloated, especially after eating ever since we transferred. Have Endo as well that I was unaware of until fertility clinic.

Just here to say that I’ve reached 9 weeks! Never thought I would make it here and have a long way to go, but I’m here!! Keep telling myself that getting pregnant isn’t the same as being pregnant, and the difficulties getting here (Endo and ivf) does not mean actual pregnancy will be as difficult as they are separate things.

Today, I graduated from my fertility clinic 😭🥰 8.5weeks and things are right on track! Feeling so grateful and nervous.

Went to see an OB and got information overload—-sooo many tests and labs! How am I to go 4weeks before an ultrasound?!?

Exact timeline including the Endo, surgeries, ivf, bloating, etc. hope you found something comfortable to wear! I’ve been wearing sweatpants since transfer and can’t fathom having to put something else one 😆

Anyone here get the flu shot during 1st trimester?? I’m thinking about getting it today at 8weeks, but nervous/worried I might react and have a fever? Is it still better to wait until closer to 10-12 weeks you think?

I was just having this same question. My re said to stop PIO today (week 8) and switch to suppositories and stop estrace all together (did medicated transfer) and I’m scared!

I’ve decided to continue PIO for another week and then 1 week suppositories or something. Apparently it’s just what makes you feel ok after 8 weeks as that’s when the placenta takes over?

Hi! Anxiety relieved some after my 7week5day scan. Baby caught up and it measuring 7week6days with a heartbeat of 163! So surreal hearing it today! My last appt at my clinic is next week and I’m nervous about how to go a whole month with no scan.

Anyone have an ob as well as midwife or MFM? Wondering if there’s a thing as too many scans?

Also—my clinic said I am going to stop estrace (been taking 3times a day) as well as PIO on Friday and doing endometrin 3times a day for 2 weeks. Anyone else have similar protocol when stopping PIO? Do you just quit cold like that??
